Course Objectives | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
This course introduces some basic notions of Algebra, and provides examples of how these methods apply to real-life problems. We examine linear equations and their graphs, systems of linear equations and linear inequalities in two variables, with application to linear programming. Next, we introduce matrices and their inverses, with applications to cryptography. Finally, we study some basic set theory, techniques of counting, permutations, and combinations, with applications to elementary probability. |
